I haven't used Elm, so I have no horse in this race. But I feel like I've been hearing these stories for a while, that it started out as an interesting and useful language but kept having features removed in new versions. Since it's open-source, and apparently there are existing projects in older versions of Elm that would effectively be held hostage by these feature removals, I'm amazed there hasn't been a (well-known) fork yet.

Has anyone considered making a compatible fork of Elm?



They could call it pine.


Name it Ruth so Elm and Ruth can be in relation like in the poem "Elm" by Sylvia Plath: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/49003/elm


Or even Mutt.


Well I guess that downvoter doesn't know much about email history.
